M. Hoover, how bad is the vibration? I have driven at least 7 Gcars, none of which had a vibration like that...

I just got my Gallardo today and its the first one I have ever driven. Its an 04 with 3500 miles, E-gear.

I can't recall what the dealer said about the clutch, but I beleive he said it was either a late year production car where the clutch had been improved, or it was replaced on a recall (I can't remember exactly).

I don't know how I would describe it, but between 2000 and 3000 rpms, there seems to be some unbalanced/restriction/mild vibration coming from the drivetrain. This completely goes away after 3000rpms and there are no signs of any clutch slippage.

I'm just trying to figure out if this is "normal" or not. If it is, I dont think its a big deal, I'm just worried that it may be a sign of something worse happening in the future. This is the only G car I have driven so I have to reference point.

It also has a Tubi exhaust which certainly sounds cool at full throttle but also seems to produce a prominent deep resonation at idle and up to 3000rpm which will take some time to get used to.
